You're Getting Very, Very Sleepy...Or At Least You Will After Reading This Book!
, 2008-06-30
Zzzzzzzzzzzzz! Er, uh, what? Sorry, I was catching a quick nap there before writing this review because we all know about the importance of getting in a good quality night's worth of sleep to our weight and health, don't we? DON'T WE?! Well, if you haven't heard about it before, then lemme tell you--if you want to lose weight, then you really do have to commit yourself to rest. Otherwise, all sorts of biochemical reactions with hormones and stuff like that will wreak havoc on your system until you can't go any more. The body will get what it needs one way or another and it's up to you to do your part with sleep. You'll reap the benefits of that, as the authors from Reader's Digest magazine state, including looking and feeling better and healthier than you ever thought possible. Included in this book are ways to get to sleep (interestingly, when it comes to recommended foods for sleep virtually ALL of them are high-carb--IMAGINE THAT!).

Get some rest!!!
, 2008-06-23
Did you know an extra two hours of sleep burns about 300 calories? And a study sited in this book showed that those who got an extra two hours of sleep ate nearly 300 calories less!!!
You are not alone in your need for sleep! This is an important book for women. We tend to take care of everyone and everything around us and neglect our own health and well-being. This book will help you (or someone you care about) understand and master good sleep. There are four parts to this book:
*Do you have a sleep problem?
Very short section to help you find your sleep style
*Surefire strategies for getting a good night's sleep
Filled with practical advice and ideas--you're sure to find something useful here
*Sleep saboteurs across the life span
This section covers a spectrum of sleep challenges from stressors, hormones, loss, nightmares, jet lag and more.
*The new meds: are they better than the old
If you are not well rested for ANY reason, this book will have some practical advice to help you on your way to being rested.
The investment you make in this purchase and the time it takes to read this book will serve you well.
If you're looking for a gift idea, how about a set of pillows, pjs, or sheets wrapped up with this book to top it off? Sweet dreams!
Laya Saul, author of the self-help book for teens, "You Don't Have to Learn Everything the Hard Way"

Finally sleeping better!
, 2008-05-19
This book is very straightforward and easy-to-use. I don't have time to read a long, drawn-out text, but a friend recommended this book because it had helped her so much. At first, I just flipped to the chapters I thought would help me most, but now I've read the whole thing!
Who knew that just checking your e-mail before going to bed can delay sleep modes in the brain by 3 HOURS! No wonder I wasn't sleeping well.
This book is directed mostly at women, but there are great, simple, tips in here for everyone on getting to sleep faster and staying asleep.

My girlfriend can sleep now! .. and thus so can I!
, 2008-05-02
I got this book for my girlfriend on a whim, she always had trouble sleeping...
Little did I know that it would actually work! She found it's advice cleverly written and useful. I of course found that it started making a difference in her sleep patterns and overall moods. Even better - I read the book, and now I know how to get myself prepared to be in sleep mode.
Hidden within its chapters I found some surprisingly useful nuggets of information. If you have ever have trouble sleeping - this is the book for you. Other books don't have this kind of information all in one place.
Worth every penny.

At last-easy tips to sleep
, 2008-04-24
Finally I found a book that had suggestions for women beyond the obvious to help me begin to sleep better like getting off the computer at least an hour before bed to destress from work and keeping a strict sleep schedule--even on the weekends when I could sleep late. Plus there are great suggestions for beating jetlag and how to reset your internal clock--I am willing to give it a try!
